I'd loved to be proved wrong Steve - give it two years and Cooper won't be with us.
mark.i feel you have something against locally born players doing well at argyle.a strange reluctance to encourage.
I think it's called a dose of reality. You would struggle to find a team that survives on local talent for more than a minority of players.
The more so the higher up the league you go. The days of a Carragher playing his entire career for his local side are in the romantic past.
So what happened with Ferguson's man utd team of local talent? Don't tell me a one-off.....
Schmeichel - Gladsaxe, Denmark
Neville - Bury, England
Johnsen - Sandefjord, Norway
Stam - Kampen, Netherlands
Irwin - Cork, Eire
Giggs - Cardiff, Wales
Beckham - Leytonstone, England
Butt - Manchester, England
Blomqvist - Tavelsjo, Sweden
Yorke - Canaan, Tobago
Cole - Nottingham, England
All local lads....
